			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m currently reading <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1861895429?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=funkybrownchi-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1861895429">Manhood: The Rise and Fall of the Penis</a>, and it includes tons of interesting facts about castration, testicles, sperm, the penis, the prostate and many other manly topics. Seriously, it&#8217;s amazing how much fun stuff Mels van Driel shares about pee pees. From his chapter titled The Penis, I&#8217;ve learned only 8% of harden to completely vertical shafts when erect. I also learned men frequently used to share their balls, testicular transplants were commonplace in the late 1800s / early 1900s. So far, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1861895429?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=funkybrownchi-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1861895429">Manhood</a> is a fun read. There&#8217;s even a section called &#8220;The smell of the scrotum.&#8221; I&#8217;ll probably write a book review for a future Manly Monday. In the meantime, since we all love penises such much around here, why not talk about giving them pleasure?</p>

<p>I didn&#8217;t know how to perform oral sex properly until one of my exes &#8212; a bisexual man with many many years of dick slurping experience &#8212; showed me how. Though I haven&#8217;t doled the full treatment to every lover I&#8217;ve gone down on, those who&#8217;ve received it haven&#8217;t complained. But, then again, would ANY guy ever seriously complain about receiving a blow job? Not sure. Anyway. Whether you&#8217;re a person who puts them in your mouth or someone who has one attached to you (or both), please feel free to use the comments section to share your oral sex tips. What feels good? What feels bad? What works? What doesn&#8217;t?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the moment, I&#8217;m working on a piece about John Mayer. Quite frankly, I&#8217;m wholly uninterested in what he does or doesn&#8217;t do with his cock. That said, the brouhaha around his comments in Playboy inspired discussion &#8212; and, thereby, my decision to write &#8212; about <strong><a href="http://funkybrownchick.com/tag/interracial-dating/">sex &amp; race/ethnicity</a> </strong>in general, and <strong><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/twanna-a-hines/freakonomics-interracial_b_119838.html?&amp;just_reloaded=1">interracial fucking</a> </strong>in particular. (As most of you know, it&#8217;s a topic to which I&#8217;ve already devoted much attention.)</p>
<p>Okay, so, on Tuesday, I&#8217;m performing at my friend <strong><a href="http://abiolatv.com/">Abiola Abrams</a></strong>&#8216; reading series, <a href="http://www.abiolaabrams.com/reading_series.html"><strong>Kiss &amp; Tell Live</strong></a>. I&#8217;ll either do a piece about: (A) the first time I ever slept with someone who wasn&#8217;t black; (B) my views on interracial dating vis-à-vis John Mayer&#8217;s recent Playboy interview; or (C) an absurdest, political &amp; completely fictional story about losing my virginity TO John Mayer titled: &#8220;Hot Brown P*ssy &amp; Immature White D*ck: Why Can&#8217;t Louis Farrakhan and David Duke Just Get Along?&#8221; ;) Use the comments to tell me which of the three stories you&#8217;d like to hear. Can&#8217;t be COMPLETELY sure, but my tentative plan is to post the piece on <strong><a href="http://funkybrownchick.com">Funky Brown Chick</a></strong> Tuesday morning and perform it that evening. (That way, you guys get to see it first.) I&#8217;ll keep you posted. In the meantime, to give you an idea what the reading will be like, here&#8217;s Abiola&#8217;s promo video for Kiss &#038; Tell LIVE:</p>

<p>Don&#8217;t agree with the gendered &#8220;biological nature&#8221; stuff. For example, in discussing what men and women want, they mention: <em>SHE may want to bask in the afterglow of your special time together by expressing her hopes and dreams of your future together. </em>I don&#8217;t know about you, but I&#8217;m much more likely to fall into a deep, coma-like sleep after sex. Mouth open. Snoring. A trail of drool lovingly linking my mouth to the dude&#8217;s chest. Anyway. Enjoy the video!</p>

PS: Posting something happy today to lift spirits / mood a bit. Like everyone, I&#8217;ve been keeping up with Haiti. Very sad :( You probably already know this, but you can help via <a href="https://donate.pih.org/page/contribute/haiti_earthquake?source=earthquake">Partners in Health</a> or by <a href="http://www.redcross.org/">texting &#8220;Haiti&#8221; to 90999</a> or other means.</font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m perched several stories in the dark sky, curled up on the floral couch of my apartment&#8217;s living room. I&#8217;m alone. It&#8217;s 2:00 a.m and Manhattan&#8217;s streets are quiet &#8212; at least they are in this part of town. Wearing panties and a t-shirt, I&#8217;m on the phone with my friend Anna-Scarlet. Speaking softly, I explain lovers from my past fall into two categories. When I&#8217;ve felt vulnerable, I gravitated toward The Silent Types. They were introverted, came from money, had few friends, managed steady careers and were total neat freaks. They were in control. Predictable. Safe. At my strongest and most independent moments, I sought fun-loving, well-traveled, wild &amp; crazy partners in crime. Apparently, uncertainty makes me crave stability and stability makes me stircrazy.</p>
<p><a title="heart-on-a-stick by dev null, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/devnull/2061418903/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2058/2061418903_5f5b3b1d16.jpg" alt="heart-on-a-stick" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;Why do you think I chose those men?&#8221; I question Anna-Scarlet via my little red touch phone.</p>
<p>My Life Choices is a topic over which I ruminate plenty. So, I didn&#8217;t ask her because I lack self reflection. I simply wanted to hear her perspective. She&#8217;s one my of favorite no-bullshit, tell-it-like-it-is girlfriends. Unafraid to shield my feelings by only saying things I want to hear, she often provides personal insights I hadn&#8217;t considered.</p>
<p>&#8220;Twanna,&#8221; she sighs in a drawl. Anna-Scarlet is a fellow black woman raised in the deep south like I was (during childhood). &#8220;You&#8217;re afraid of intimacy. When you date risk-taking loose cannons, you&#8217;re actively seeking out people you know aren&#8217;t capable of forming stable relationships.&#8221;</p>
<p>I already know her words are true. She continues speaking, figuratively holding up a mirror to reflect an imperfection I often try to avoid. <em>I keep men at a distance so they can&#8217;t danger my heart. </em>Anna-Scarlet wants me to be a better person, and she wants me to have more fulfilling relationships.</p>
<p>My voice falls silent until I eventually mumble, &#8220;I know, I know.&#8221;</p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s my turn to sigh. I&#8217;m not sleepy; I&#8217;m weary. Everyone has emotional baggage. I&#8217;d like to check mine in somewhere and leave them for good but, oddly, I feel more comfortable with them at my side. &#8220;Okay,&#8221; I challenge, &#8220;So, what the story with the other side of the equation? Why do I date stable dudes?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You write about relationships and shit!!&#8221; She giggles. &#8220;Why are you asking <strong>me</strong>?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Even doctors seek second opinions when it comes to their personal health. Outside perspectives are always good.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;True,&#8221; she agrees.</p>
<p>I think I hear her nod. &#8220;Soooo?&#8221; I wait. &#8220;What?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What do you mean &#8216;what&#8217;?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;When do you think I&#8217;ll stop repeating the same patterns?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Twanna,&#8221; she starts. &#8220;You&#8217;ll stop seeking stability in men once you&#8217;ve discovered that for yourself. And, you&#8217;ll stop dating unattainable guys when you get tired of the dance and you&#8217;re ready to settle down.&#8221;</p>
<p>I know she&#8217;s right.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you could see my calendar, you&#8217;d know why I didn&#8217;t get around to updating <a href="http://funkybrownchick.com">Funky Brown Chick</a> yesterday. (Actually, in case you&#8217;re interested, here&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/funkybrownchick/4189486739/">screenshot</a>.) There&#8217;s something on every evening. And, some nights, like tonight, there are several events at the same time. Things are a bit crazier than usual because it&#8217;s the holiday season + end of the year when everything gets crammed in before we all kiss 2009 goodbye. Speaking of &#8220;kissing&#8221; (and events), I had a great time at <a href="http://www.abiolaabrams.com/id244.html">Abiola&#8217;s Kiss and Tell Live</a>. It&#8217;s a monthly erotic reading series. If you missed it last night, come in February for <strong>The Valentine&#8217;s Day Hangover</strong>. I&#8217;ll be performing. Haven&#8217;t decided what yet, but I&#8217;ll probably put it to a vote later and let Funky Brown Chick readers decide.</p>
<p>At last night&#8217;s Kiss and Tell, I&#8217;d already met everyone except the duo named <a href="http://daveandethan.com">Dave and Ethan</a>. I checked out their website. They&#8217;ve got quite a few fun videos, so I thought I&#8217;d share one with you today.</p>
<p><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VEShWaTVxYQ&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xcc2550&#038;color2=0xe87a9f"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VEShWaTVxYQ&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xcc2550&#038;color2=0xe87a9f" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object></p>
<p>Oooh, ooh, ooh, this gives me an idea!!! For the February performance, I might share the sexy story about how one of my exes picked me up. Hmmm &#8230; Gotta think about whether or not I want to talk about that one. Anyway. Guys, if you&#8217;ve got a fun story about picking up a woman you adored, feel free to share it in the comments section below. Ditto for the women; If someone wooed you particularly well, tell us how they did it.</p>

Here&#8217;s now it happened. Last night, I bumped into <a href="http://nichellestephens.com/">Nichelle</a> at the <a href="http://cupcakestakethecake.blogspot.com/2009/11/cupcakes-take-cake-fifth-anniversary.html">5th Anniversary Cupcake Takes the Cake Party</a>. In passing, she mentioned recently hanging out with Jessica, author of <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1401302009?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=funkybrownchi-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1401302009">The Washingtonienne</a></strong>, in New York. I forgot she lived here. So, today, I looked up her book again to see what she&#8217;s been up to. In an odd chain of ADHD point and clicking, I traveled from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Cutler">Cutler&#8217;s wikipedia page</a> to <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0517051blog1.html">The Smoking Gun</a> to <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/tsgtv/">TSG&#8217; videos</a>. There&#8217;s where I got the idea to write about &#8220;gonorrhea.&#8221; Why? Well, one of TSG&#8217;s most frequently viewed clips is a vintage <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_War">United States War Department</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army_Service_Forces">Army Service Forces</a> short film about sexual health called <strong><a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/tsgtv/index.html?id=AQ106-03&amp;link=TSGTVshlk">Easy To Get</a></strong>. Of course I watched it! Who doesn&#8217;t love a dirty girl?</p>
<p><a title="v2.312 and 6/366: January 6th (Getting Dirty) by Phoney Nickle, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mslivenletlive/2173475613/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2204/2173475613_6de2a68064.jpg" alt="v2.312 and 6/366: January 6th (Getting Dirty)" width="500" /></a></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/tsgtv/index.html?id=AQ106-03&amp;link=TSGTVshlk">Easy To Get</a></strong> contains so much WIN that I don&#8217;t even know where to start. Hmmm, maybe my favorite part is the section where the narrator reminds us it&#8217;s better for a baby to DIE than be born with syphilis. Or, maybe this part was the best:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>ARMY DUDE: &#8220;</strong>You got gonorrhea , Baker.&#8221;<br />
<strong>CORPORAL BAKER: </strong>&#8220;Gonorrhea?!?! I don&#8217;t know how I &#8230;&#8221;<br />
<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>ARMY DUDE: &#8220;</strong>I do. You had a dirty woman!&#8221;<br />
<strong>CORPORAL BAKER: &#8220;</strong>No sir [...] She wasn&#8217;t a prostitute!&#8221;<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>ARMY DUDE: </strong>&#8220;You known her long?&#8221;<br />
<strong>CORPORAL BAKER: &#8220;</strong>I met her the day I got home!&#8221;<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>ARMY DUDE: </strong>&#8220;On the street or in a bar?&#8221;<br />
<strong>CORPORAL BAKER:</strong> &#8220;I don&#8217;t mess around with street walkers [...]&#8220;</p></blockquote>
<p>Yes, my friends, street walkers are living <strong>gonorrhea</strong> vessels. <strong><a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/tsgtv/index.html?id=AQ106-03&amp;link=TSGTVshlk">Easy To Get</a></strong> is Made Of Win :) And ooh, ooh, ooh &#8230; how could I NOT love the part where the music turns sinister and Mr. Announcer says the girl seemed nice enough but SHE WAS DIRTY ON THE INSIDE!! :) <strong><a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/tsgtv/index.html?id=AQ106-03&amp;link=TSGTVshlk">Easy To Get</a></strong> = Easy To Love. Tons of great messages about health, clearing up STDs / STIs misconceptions about &#8220;the strain,&#8221; women&#8217;s roles in spreading disease and other fun stuff. See how the internet works? It goes from Jessica Cutler to The Smoking Gun to The Army &#8230; somehow gonorrhea gets mixed in &#8230; and then it goes to YOU via <strong><a href="http://funkybrownchick.com">Funky Brown Chick</a></strong>. C&#8217;est tout! That&#8217;s all I&#8217;ve got for you today. Just a quick and &#8220;dirty&#8221; (ha, ha) post because I&#8217;m rolling toward Philadelphia as I type this. By the way, THANK YOU to the lovely folks at <strong><a href="http://www.boltbus.com/">Bolt Bus</a></strong>. Their ridiculously inexpensive pricing &#8212; coupled with a great <strong><a href="http://www.priceline.com/">Priceline</a></strong> deal for a nice 4-star waterfront hotel &#8212; delivered quick and wonderful 3 day / 2 night weekend trip to see a friend. (Will <a href="http://twitter.com/funkybrownchick">tweet</a> and post Philly pictures on <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/funkybrownchick">my Flickr</a>.)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="NYC condom by victoriapeckham, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/victoriapeckham/543037132/"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1192/543037132_9fc88a1eff.jpg" alt="NYC condom" width="250" align="left" /></a>If I&#8217;m going to have sex with a guy, I&#8217;ll ask him to slip a balloon on his dick. I use condoms. Almost always. It&#8217;s not the men, it&#8217;s me. I don&#8217;t want a baby. Or AIDS. Or crabs. Or random green shit oozing out my hooha. Once we&#8217;ve been together exclusively for a while, we&#8217;ll talk about going raw. Until then, I&#8217;m uber protective about my <strong>sexual health</strong>. I think men who care about their safety, too, are SEXY. (Sidenote: If I don&#8217;t know a guy really well and he wants to nail me without protection, I&#8217;m going to assume he generally sticks his lollipop in women wrapper free every time. Or at least very often. That scares me.)</p>
<p>Okay, so, I was inspired to write about condoms because it&#8217;s <strong><a href="http://mashable.com/2009/12/01/twitter-facebook-google-red/">World AIDS Day</a></strong>. According to the <strong><a href="http://www.cdc.gov/Features/WorldAidsDay/">CDC</a></strong>, 1 in 5 of the more than one million people in the U.S. living with HIV don&#8217;t know even they have it. Earlier, I tweeted the list of <strong><a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/html/std/std2.shtml">NYC free clinics</a> </strong>for anonymous <strong><a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/html/std/std2.shtml">HIV testing</a> </strong>available in all 5 boroughs. It&#8217;s important to get tested and know your status. Check and check; I&#8217;m negative. I guess that ends the <strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_service_announcement">Public Service Announcement</a> </strong>section of today&#8217;s blog post. Now, for a related topic, <strong><a href="http://secure.condomania.com/products.asp?dept=18">small condoms</a> </strong>and <strong><a href="http://secure.condomania.com/prodinfo.asp?number=C-KMTL-SL">large condoms</a></strong>.</p>
<p>One of my exboyfriends from ages ago (in Florida) had a slightly <strong><a href="http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/4321.html">small penis</a></strong>. The condom often slipped off when we had sex. On the other end of the spectrum, I&#8217;ve also been with a guy whose member was so large it was kind of hard to stuff it into a standard sized condom. That said, although men often obsess about how they measure up, the truth is: all guys are pretty similar in length and girth. I mean, you know, few men are a thin as a pencil and short as a clitoris. Even fewer are a thick as a baby&#8217;s arm and long as a baseball bat from scrotum to tip. Size differences are relatively subtle. That said, if any of you have interesting stories about anecdotes about penis size, feel free to leave them in the comments section below. I&#8217;m especially curious to hear a guys&#8217; perspectives about the topic, but women are encouraged to weigh in as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t think I give extraordinarily stellar performances in the sack, nor am I particularly horrible. I prefer quality over quantity. I don&#8217;t sleep with everyone; so, if I sleep with a particular guy, I want to do it in many positions, places and times of day &#8230; pushing our sexual and emotional boundaries as much as we&#8217;re both comfortable. And, if I&#8217;m really really really really into a guy (and things have progressed to a relationship), my brown body aches for him to touch, taste, smell, penetrate, lick, pinch and suck every single millimeter of it. In my mind, <strong><a href="../2009/03/18/is-good-sex-a-basic-human-need/">great sex</a> </strong>is about mutual pleasure &#8212; my humping partner respecting, tending to and pleasing me as much as they want to do the same for them. Of course there are exceptions. If the guy can&#8217;t last longer than a few seconds, it doesn&#8217;t generally make for a good time. Period. If the dude is EXTREMELY attentive to my body, I&#8217;m probably going to have a really good time no matter what.</p>

<p>Who decides how/what/who makes a good lover? Everyone has different answers to that question. So, feel free to share your ideas in the comments section below. I&#8217;m particularly interested in hearing from: (1) people who have specific deal breakers that automatically make them go limp / dry up during sex; (2) people who&#8217;ve been with men or women who were LOUSY lovers and (3) people who&#8217;ve been with EXCELLENT lovers. In other words, ladies and gentlemen, here&#8217;s your shot: Use the comments section to describe what works well and what doesn&#8217;t.</p>
